Legal Advice/opinions?

Ryan,

The last line is not a threat, it is a religious statement. He is saying that all anyone should really worry about is whether they are ready for death. Pretty sure he is talking about "prepared to meet your maker" from a spiritual standpoint. He is not threatening you. The other clues are "just got back from retreat", and the reference to Noah.

 

Yep. I'm pretty sure he's buddhist.

Birchy:

 

Without knowing what took place in that phone call (sounds like its mostly resolved), make sure you document the following:

 

1) the phone call tonight and the substance of the conversation - write it down!

2) Send him a polite letter back - more documentation, and you should photocopy it - acknowledging both the conversation and his commitment to pay you x$ in another 4 weeks time.

 

If you do get the x$ in 4 weeks, absolutely run and be done with this. But of course you know that.

 

And my final contribution to the discussion, in general:

1) We live in a digital age - as protection for the tenant and landlord, always take digital pictures of the the place you are about to move into. As a landlord, I take pictures and video.

2) As a tenant, make sure there is a written move-in report that you and the Landlord (or agent thereof) were both present at. No written move-in report, no deductions from security deposit (benefit for the tenant, but causes headaches for both parties). Don't rent from a Landlord who won't do a proper move-in.

3) As a Landlord, always collect a full security deposit - one month's rent. Never -ever- "cut-a-break" to a prospective tenant, by charging less than one month's rent. You're entitled to it, and provides the max protection for you from broken things and broken leases.
